Cheers Craig, not sure if you got that price from me but i definitely never paid as little as 800 notes.

i was thinking about sticking up a build thread funnily enough, so once things start to happen ill stick one up.

oh and its not really been cleaned yet either (not properly anyway)

Paint is S5J Lapis Lazuli Blue and the mileage is actually just tipped over 40k.

Everything is completely standard at the moment and the lady who owned it before me took it back to the dealership year after year religiously by date for a service and mot, even have a print out showing she went there when she needed new wiper blades fitting, the seats are so hard she must have been about 3 stone as there is no wear at all to any part of the seats.

The bodywork isn't exactly perfect as you would imagine from a lady owned car, no offence to all the ladies on here, but its been used literally as a shop run about which the mileage/service intervals suggest. theres a small scuff on the front bumper (drivers side) which is hardly noticeable due to the paint colour and the pass door looks to have blown open at some point as there a very small defect on the edge of the door where it meets the wing.

other than that it seem mechanically sound which tbh is the most important thing for me as it has been bought for my fiancee to use whilst between jobs and waiting for our new A3 to arrive. Once it arrive im not 100% sure what to do with it as i can honestly say im a MK2 golf man through and through.

I would be a shame to strip this and plant the engine into a mk2 although it had crossed my mind, but i think unless some one crashes into me and wrecks the car then i cant see myself ripping it apart, its just to good of an example.

so i guess it'll be sold on eventually, doubt ill even get to use it much if im honest but hopefully ill have a little fun with it first

ill be sure to let you all know when i decide to sell, ive just made some enquiries on a mk2 as it happens and if all goes well ill be picking it up in the morning, still need to wait on the new A3 to arrive though so id could be a month or so before its up.
